Losing hope, running away, getting back

in #poetry3 years ago

Miracle will not happen everytime we pray for it.
Even if we pray 1440 minutes daily.
Longer than expected the waiting time be,
It felt like the moment is stopped.
Not able to reach the dream up ahead.
Do anyone else notice that I am stuck in the past?
A moment frozen in time with me inside it.

Trying to escape the prison that chained me,
Running away as fast as I can,
A catch of breath is all that I need,
Changing my perspective for the reason of escape,
Yes, realizing the loss from my one wrong decision.

Realizing the fault in my past mistake,
Again I stand strong and ready to start over,
Chain or no chain I decide to strive,
Hoping that my strength is all that I need.
Even if I might have to fight alone,
Love is enough to prove that all is worth.

Welcome back. Thought I lose you there for awhile. I felt all of those, sometimes at its worse. Skip the below because I'm about to share my feelings about this poem. I have a strong feeling about it, but at the same time worry if you'll get offended. So jump straight to the conclusion.

The prayer part, I have a different opinion. I have learnt to pray for my strength, for my mental state, rather than praying for something magically get done by god's finger tip. Because I have that 1440 minutes praying in the past, and realized I've been spending too much time in prayer rather than really doing something to overcome the challenge itself.

For whatever reason I felt the punch in the poetry, I hope you already overcome it from the final few lines.

Been buzy lately.
No it is alright. I have been there too. 1440 minutes.

I have fallen into frustation and giving up on prayer too. I once thought that going to church is the only way to be bless.

Now that a kit have happen, I don't go to church anymore(not because I don't want to) something happen that made me see things differently. This will be a long story. 😅😅

Perhaps I can write about it and tag you. I write some on other platform too.

Great poem and great to see you here again! I hope all is well. We all do have our struggles and I hope you stay strong and ready to fight your battles.

Thank you. I never left. Just having not much time to write compare to before. Covid took all the free time we got only to have a good rest.
